Re: [Gomp-discuss] corrections to gompspecs.tex

[Lars Segerlund]

 Well I think we can't make do without tree-ssa, it's got gfortran in it, and 
the form is probably the most suited for parallelization so I think we have to 
stake our bets on it.

 As for gcc, I think we need to make the GENERIC tree's contain all the info we 
need, ( and perhaps strip it during gimplification at first ). When we have 
done that the hard part is to teach the rest of the backend to behave.

 Anyhow, I will try to get the lib going.
